It has taught us so much...

It’s back!

This weekend marks the return of The Late Late Show (we know, Friday nights are sorted!).

It has been on our screens since 1962, yes 1962, so to be entirely fair, we have learned most of our life lessons from it and indeed, a whole lot more.

Here are 11 of our favourites.

It’s a national institution

Everyone watches The Late Late Show. Everyone.

There’s no show like the Toy Show

It’s the most important event of the year – no nights out should be planned for this time. Epic television.

Gay Byrne taught us a lot

Before Gay Byrne, the subject of sex would certainly never have been broached by Irish broadcasters. This was a video from 1991. We still weren’t talking about it then.

Anything can happen

You could even find the next big boyband.

There’s nothing like a surprise 

Look at his face.

Never ever refuse Toy Show tickets

Just, no. Pat will get angry. You wouldn’t like him when he’s angry.

Ed Sheeran is a gentleman

We love this one!

There’s always one.

Oh, you know the kind.

John Joe is a legend

What a genius.

You’ll always get something

There’s always something for everyone in the audience.

There’s nothing like reuniting a daughter and her mother.

Get ready for the tears.

You could be chased by a random bird.

Like we said, anything could happen.

The Irish are a cheeky bunch

Brilliant.

We love our mammies

What a man.
